ABOUT

ELLIE PRESS was set up in 2013 by me… Emma and operates out of my home studio in Weston Turville, Buckinghamshire. My business was named after the little red Adana 8 X 5 which thumped card stock like a baby elephant and was dragged out to craft fairs and even into the local school to teach children about printing.

All of the printing today is carried out by Betsy, a foolscap folio Arab Platen (13 X 9 chase) that had been owned by a retired hobby printer and just needed a little TLC. She was restored by Logan Press to the working condition she is in today. The number 2921 stamped into Betsy indicates she was made circa 1895, a real piece of history! I have also added a new press to my collection called Gilda. She likes to makes things shiny and is used for hot-foiling stationery.

My passion for drawing means that I love to create bespoke artwork that really means something to my wedding clients from beautiful venue illustrations to elements that tie in to the couples overall theme. I also have a little Etsy shop where i channel my passions for cute adorable things like rabbits!
